Father, I’m going through some heavy thingsIt seems like this world ain’t getting any betterThe more we try to get closer to YouThe farther we run from Your throne

I’ve spent so many nights wonderin’ when will it endWhen will the day come when happiness beginsI’m running the race but it seems too hard to winI’m sick of mourning my stomach is throwing up in the morning

I’m calling for help and watching it melt awayMy heart’s been put on display and put awayIn many ways, many times I told myself it was okAnd anger was the price that was paidWhile these faded dreams just screamed to bring them home

The burden was too heavy I kept running from the throneI can’t take it any longerI can taste my spirit hungerGod please help me get home

Chorus:Lord though I walk through the valley of the shadow of deathI’m not scared cause You’re holding my breathI only fear that I don’t have enough time leftTo tell the world that there’s no time left, Lord pleaseLord though I walk through the valley of the shadow of deathI’m not scared cause You’re holding my breathI only fear that I don’t have enough time leftTo tell the world that there’s no time left

I’ve come to terms that I’m burning both sides of the ropeAnd I’m hoping that self-control would kick in before I’m choking offThe sin that be destroying every fiber I gotI need the Lord in every way I’ll never make it I’m notGoing back to the way I was before Christ in my lifeI couldn’t do it I would lose it there’s no point to the fightAnd I’m writing this song, for the people who don’t belongI pray away the pain you feel from all the things that went wrongInside a life that’s filled with anger and disappointmentCause daddy treated you weaker than all of the other kidsIt’s annoying and I feel for all of you who wanna give upYou feel stuck I feel the same way Lord help us stay upYou couldn’t pay me to abandon the idea of true hopeThat I could make it through this life into a place where there’s no cryingI’m dying to find You with open arms when I goKnowing You love me and You waiting to give rest to my soul

Lord I don’t know what I’m struggling forThere’s go to be moreThan this life I knowBut still I’m here fighting to never give upI find strength in Your loveAnd You will see me through
